I like the Sig 238 and almost bought one a while back. I decided for pocket carry I preferred the Ruger LCP. Its very light and comfortable to carry and my idea behind carrying it is it will be a get off of me gun. When I carry my LCP its when nothing else will do. I carry it with FMJ for this purpose.

To understand why I carry a 380 with FMJ, you have to look at my carry pool. I have 4 5" 1911s, a commander 1911, Glock 19, 2 HiPowers, Kahr P9, and a S&W 642. I prefer to carry my Kahr P9, which is an amazing carry gun, but you see why I say I carry my LCP when nothing else will do.

Unfortunately my sweat pants and summer gym shorts simply won't support my CCO. But my P238 in a clipless Remora holster works just fine thank you very much. It's a classic case of a 380 or no gun at all

Sorry.... couldn't help it. I read shotgun....swimming trunks... and see Virginia Beach in the location line.... a floppy eared Bunny flashes on the boob tube.... and my mind wanders back to those wild T-Shirts from years gone bye about doing your "b*lling on Virginia Beach!" hahahahaha..... what a combination!

Me ... and many of my friends ... swear by the Kahr PM9. We shoot pocket gun matches with them and they have proven reliable and accurate. I love mine and carry it in a Big River Leather MCT holster.

I do the same thing and agree with your statement. I always carry mine when I go check the mail or take the trash out. When I get home I either have gym shorts or sweat pants on.

It is summer here in Houston 10 months out of the year and carry my 4" Rock bobtail almost year round. But I am liking my wife's 238 and am thinking of getting one for me.
